I’m pretty earthy; I nursed forever because I liked it and my kids liked it, but at the same time I’m very laissez-faire about stuff like bedtimes and food. – Ana Gasteyer
Most of the managers are lifetime .220 hitters. For years pitchers have been getting these managers out 75% of the time and that’s why they don’t like us. – Bill Lee

I’m no good with words but I’ll find ways from time to time to show you how grateful I am. – Alan Ladd

I took Meisner for a long time. I use a lot of sense memory and, well, I wouldn’t say Method, but I can’t really avoid getting into character. – Alexandra Daddario
People challenge my nerd cred all the time. I just show them the photo of me winning my middle-school science fair, wearing my Casio calculator watch and eyeglasses so big they look like they can see the future. – Aisha Tyler

Whenever I gaze up at the moon, I feel like I’m on a time machine. I am back to that precious pinpoint of time, standing on the foreboding – yet beautiful – Sea of Tranquility. I could see our shining blue planet Earth poised in the darkness of space. – Buzz Aldrin
By the time I auditioned for ‘Aliens in America,’ the July 7 bombing had happened in London. So I’d had those experiences where I would get onto the Tube, and people would get off. So there was a lot about Raja that I understood. – Adhir Kalyan
I just take on what I can commit to completely at that point in time, and that way you’ll be able to give your best. – Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
I’ve hardly had an avant-garde career… If you’re going to make a film, you have to try to make sure it comes out of a childlike passion, as if you’re doing it for the first time. – Alan J. Pakula
I worked with Dalton Trumbo, who served time for refusing to give up names of people that were accused of being Communists. I’ve always admired him. – Anthony Geary
We are the kind of people who obsess over one word… but we have only one shot to get it right in concert. It was hard the first time I practiced with them. I was so nervous that my vocal chords were paralyzed for about a half-hour. – Amy Tan
I didn’t want to stay in the Stones, and be stuck in a position having to play a music I didn’t like anymore and that restricted me from doing all the others things I’m interested in because of time. – Bill Wyman

I grew up with J. Edgar Hoover. He was the G-man, a hero to everybody, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation was the big, feared organization. He was ahead of his time as far as building up forensic evidence and fingerprinting. But he took down a lot of innocent people, too. – Clint Eastwood
You can’t run a company simply by the numbers. So if you’re going to bet on someone, you bet on someone you want to be in business with for a long time. – Amy Pascal
‘Try Again’ – every time I hear that song, it just brings a smile to your face. When you’re feeling like crap, and you hear, ‘Dust yourself off and try again,’ it kind of just puts you in a different mindset, 100 percent. – Alexandra Shipp
I don’t hide anything about myself, so I don’t find it difficult to talk about things that happen in my life… But at the same time, I don’t like putting myself out there too much. That’s how I am. – Anushka Sharma
Side note: When I dressed up like Harley Quinn on TV a long time ago, everyone was like, ‘Who is that?’ And now she’s got an entire merchandise line. – AJ Lee

You go to LA, or you go to New York, and it’s really fun to go there. But they’re not grounded. Everybody is just competing all the time for the limelight. It’s too much entertainment industry. There are too many choices. And it’s distracting to me. – Bob Seger
Phil Walden had complete faith in us, and I’ll respect him forever for that. I think he sunk about $150,000 in us. He was close to bankruptcy a lot of the time, and Atlantic kept telling him we didn’t have a chance. – Butch Trucks
I always entertain the notion that I’m wrong, or that I’ll have to revise my opinion. Most of the time that feels good; sometimes it really hurts and is embarrassing. – Anthony Bourdain
